Injured medical staff.
Patients still arriving.
Despite severe damage following recent strikes, Jabal Amel Hospital continues operating under extreme pressure, turning chaos into care, and urgency into life-saving action.
Under the sound of airstrikes and in empty streets, Wafaa chose to stay in her village in southern #Lebanon, holding on to memories, her land, and the people she once shared daily life with. As danger grew closer and friends were lost in the #conflict, life was reshaped by war.
Excellent discussions today with @DrPaulMorcos . The meeting addressed the ongoing coordination and cooperation between @MinistryInfoLB and @ICRC_lb, with a focus on the protection of journalists during armed conflict.
📍Tyre, southern Lebanon
A worsening humanitarian situation as intensified strikes force evacuations from densely populated areas. Families are displaced again, carrying exhaustion, loss, and uncertainty, while civilian infrastructure continues to bear the heaviest impact.
As hostilities continue in southern Lebanon, civilians remain trapped in a reality where their safety, stability, and the hope of returning home grows more fragile each day. The consequences of any further escalation can be devastating for them.
Proud to see NotATarget recognized among the world’s leading creative campaigns. In collaboration between with @TBWARAAD, @ICRC_lb won the D&AD Yellow Pencil in MENA. A powerful reminder that civilians are #NotATarget, https://t.co/INkZhCN3qi, https://t.co/NAf1XsDM3X

Today is World Red Cross Red Crescent Day, and it comes at a moment of profound alarm.
"Too many of our colleagues have been killed - some while driving ambulances, working in hospitals and responding to emergencies; others while helping people in their own communities. We honour them and mourn alongside their families, loved ones and colleagues.
On this 8 May, we call on all those with influence and responsibility to uphold the protections that civilians, medical personnel, humanitarian workers and communities depend on. Respect for the emblems, for humanitarian rules and principles, is therefore essential."

Humanitarian workers are not a target.
They must be protected.
